This family's experience:

Activities: We visited Arbetets Museum. Our kids loved 'Lilla Arbetes', a whole floor dedicated to children and families. The museum has well-designed environments for children to explore and enjoy

Highlights: The kids, even the older ones, "barely wanted to leave". They found it a great pleasure to hang around the well-designed environments ✨
